Just add it to the list of folks twisting the story to paint him the villain. If you go back and watch it again, its pretty clear he thought the interview was over. The full quote was him telling Holly just how hard it was and how much energy it took for him to NOT say "imagine if we had pros."

Media just running rampant with half truths and or full lies at this point, following the script and the talking points...facts be damned.

anyone that watches that and insists Lane was being for real and not trolling, is being particularly and willfully obtuse.

I mean taking it in context of the Dr Pepper add he just filmed, you know he is pushing buttons.

Please make that a part of a lawsuit.

I mean this whole thing is absurd but trying to argue this is like Ricky Bobby and with all due respect no one except for the SEC is trying to act like he wasn’t joking with it but that doesn’t mean that because he said he was trying no to say it he didn’t still say it

If they had issue with what he said, then that should have been a phone call to Lane on Verge on Sunday, Not a fricking lawsuit

The dumbest part about it is that LSU does have pro players. Every D1 school in America has pro players, by every known definition of the word "professional"

And yet, while Sankey was on the stand, he couldn't define what a professional athlete was.

Fixed it for you.

He knew he was full of shite and didn't want to get boxed in to an actual definition of the word that he couldn't stand behind.
